For some reason, the entire palace square suddenly went dead silent even though there were more than one hundred thousand people gathered there. Everyone was just staring dumbly at the scene in the middle of the square, as if in a trance. For a moment there, everyone had forgotten about their fear.

After all, it was hard to feel fear in their heart when they looked at all that pink in front of them.

Loud beeping noises soon broke the eerie silence.

Lilith took out her spectrum stone then opened it.

“What did you think of that, Your Highness? Is everyone shocked by our amazing performance?”

Gulch’s excited voice came out through the spectrum stone.

“……”
“Hmm? Why aren’t you saying anything, Your Highness? Are you so shocked by our artistic performance that you can’t even speak?”
“……”
“Haha, there’s no need for such a reaction, Your Highness. This may be an extremely rare performance to others, but you’re our noblest princess and we can show you this as many times as you want in the future!”
“……”

Gulch continued speaking proudly, completely unaware of the strange look on Lilith’s face.

“Gulch…” she said his name, her voice almost inaudible.
“Yes?”
“Can I ask you a question?”
“Y-Yes…”

Despite the fact that Gulch was dense, he finally sensed that something was wrong.

“May I ask… is there a point… for you to do what you did?”
“Point?”

On the other end of the line, Gulch’s eyes suddenly lit up.

As expected of Princess Lilith to be asking such a profound question right off the bat. The princess would surely understand the profundity and greatness of their self-created imagery art.

“Well, I’ll have to start with telling you the first time I came to the human kingdom a thousand years ago. I saw a cute little girl in a pink dress running past me on a crowded street, and it was love at first sight. That was the beginning of how I came to understand the ultimate art of this world and how I seized the opportunity to…”

“Wait,” Lilith suddenly interrupted Gulch. “I have completely no interest in learning how you became a perverted lolicon. What I want to know is…”

Lilith’s tone gradually turned cold and sounded like she was on the verge of an outburst.

“Did you guys deal any actual damage to the enemy before you left here…?”
“……”

There was dead silence.

Forced by the increasingly terrifying pressure from Lilith, Gulch gulped then gathered his courage and said, “Of… Of course we did…”

“Oh? Can you be more specific?”

“Uh… Uhm… Oh, that’s right. Our actions have dealt a great blow to the enemy’s psyche. I bet that guy who called himself Nine has probably lost all his will to fight now after what he’s been through thanks to us. I reckon he won’t be able to do anything other than waiting to see what Your Highness will do to him.”

“Is that so?”

Lilith lifted her gaze and looked at her enemy, who was about to shoot fire out of his eyes, then said coldly, “Why doesn’t it seem to be that way to me?”

“Ha… ha… I’m sure that’s because there’s a delay in the effect. Just wait for a little while longer…”

“Well, I don’t have that much time to wait around. Just tell me, did you two manage to stab him in time while you were putting him into that pink princess dress and being banished from here?”

“… I think… we did…”

“I’ve heard enough. Just wait for your death.”

Without waiting for Gulch to say anything else, Lilith immediately snapped her spectrum stone shut with a click.

There was no need to listen to anything they wanted to say either. After all, the words of the dying were meaningless.

Her top priority now was to think about how to handle this villain who had obviously gone nuts after receiving a huge blow to his psyche.

Green Emperor’s gaze hardened as he patted his chest and offered, “Your Highness, please allow me to handle this. I promise I won’t let you down. The enemy will definitely feel the worst pain in this world.”

There was eagerness and determination in his eyes. It was almost as if as soon as Lilith nodded, he would make her enemy suffer the worst pain in this world within the next few seconds. In all honesty, he sounded extremely reliable.

However…

“Really? How nice of you, Greenie.”

Lilith let out a soft sigh. Her lips then curled into a kind smile, but her eyes were as still as an ancient well filled with ice-cold water. One would be chilled to their bones just by meeting her gaze alone.

With her most extremely gentle voice, she asked, “Do you know what hell looks like, Greenie?”

Lilith’s anger was already off the charts at this point. Despite the smile on her face, her tone was dead serious.

“……”

Green Emperor wisely shut his mouth and started coaxing Leniah with the candied fruit skewers he received earlier.

“Each and every single one of you is good for nothing! I’m starting to understand how my mother turned into such a huge ******!”

Lilith figured that probably only a ****** like her mother could control this bunch of idiots who kept doing stupid things just because they had innate talents.

She continued lamenting in her heart while turning her head to look in Nine’s direction.

In a sense, Gulch’s “work of art” was not completely useless. It was just as he said, being forcibly changed into an adorable pink princess dress in front of an audience of more than a hundred thousand people in broad daylight was indeed a traumatizing experience that not many could bear.

However, there were two very different ways a person would react to trauma.

They either lost all their will to fight, as Gulch had hoped…

Or…

They would completely lose their mind.

“I’LL KILL YOU ALL. I’LL KILL YOU ALL. I’LL KILL YOU ALL. I’LL KILL YOU ALL…”

After Gulch was completely banished from here, Nine hung his head and kept muttering the same thing over and over again. His chants grew louder and louder, until they eventually turned into hysterical screams after Lilith finished speaking with Gulch.

His targets also seemed to have changed to everyone.

“ALL OF YOU! ALL OF YOU WHO SAW THIS WILL HAVE TO DIE! DIE, AHAHAHA!!!”

The paper on Nine’s face fluttered wildly. If it was not for the lovely bow that Gulch had carefully tied on his head before he left, Nine would have looked as terrifying as a vengeful ghost right now.

But now…

“PFFFT…”

Oops, I accidentally laughed out loud.

Lilith quickly covered her mouth. Even so, she could not suppress her laughter.

Although she was so mad that she wanted to beat the crap out of Gulch and Kvass, she still lost it when she saw Nine.

After all… No one could possibly hold back their laughter at the sight of a villain in a cute and pink princess dress, complete with a bow on his head, no matter how intimidating his aura was.

With Lilith’s sense of hearing, she heard many stifled laughter around them until they gradually converged to the extent that even ordinary people could hear.

It went without saying that Nine also heard it clearly.

“A-ALL OF YOU…!!!”

Nine tore the pink princess dress like he was out of his mind. He seemed to rather be naked than enduring the shame of being humiliated this way for the rest of his life.

However…

“W-…What…?!”

He could not rip the dress to pieces.

Despair gradually filled Nine’s voice as he realized that he could not destroy that adorable pink dress no matter how hard he tried to tear it up.

“How… can this be?!”
“Looks like Gulch isn’t that bad…” Lilith gloated while laughing.
“People who are weaker than him won’t be able to rip this dress. How nice of him to give you such a high quality dress as a gift.”
